NEW YORK, October 25, 2010 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Energtek Inc., a
leader in hi-tech natural gas solutions and Adsorbed Natural Gas (ANG)
technology, today announced that the company’s board of directors has decided
to authorize its fully-owned subsidiary, Energtek Products Ltd., to organize
a fundraise to further develop business operations. The Board has authorized
negotiations for raising funds while keeping a controlling position in the
subsidiary.

The authorization allows for raising up to $10 million through private
placements or through a public placement in the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange,
which could include merging with a public entity. The Tel Aviv Stock Exchange
(TASE) has a growing subsection focused on oil and gas exploration.

Energtek Products Ltd. specializes in providing natural gas
transportation solutions to customers who are not connected to pipeline
infrastructure. Energtek Products develops pipeless natural gas distribution
projects for industrial consumers, being currently actively engaged in the
development of such networks in the Balkans and Israel. In addition, the
company conducts oil and gas exploration in Israel.

“Our subsidiary Energtek Products Ltd. has made significant forward
progress in the past twelve months,” said Energtek CEO Lev Zaidenberg.
“Energtek Products has established a new market in Serbia that includes a
fully-operational natural gas source, along with industrial customers waiting
to benefit from that energy source. The subsidiary is also developing
channels to perform similar activities in the Israeli market.”

“In addition, Energtek Products has identified the potential for oil and
gas exploration in the Nir Am-Sa’ad field in Israel. Energtek Products holds
exclusive license to explore and exploit oil & natural gas in this field.”

“It is appropriate to seek funding in Israel for gas distribution and
exploration activities to take place in that country,” Zaidenberg added.
“Energtek Products’ funding opportunities will be guided by all relevant
regulations in Israel regarding oil & gas exploration, including the recently
implemented limitations on transactions regarding ownership of exploration
rights.”
